Unity church of Louisville, Kentucky

The service at Unity Church in Louisville was beautiful. I loved the songs and hymns that praise the lord and treat every human as God‘s creation.

This city amazes me with the amount of interfaith work it is blessed with. I was there to talk with Pastor Susan to invite her to the Unity day in Louisville. We are in our 6th year in Dallas, Texas. God willing we will hold the unity day in Dallas, and Louisville this year.

The Church used to be a synagogue until they sold the place to build it in another location. The star of David is pinned on the zenith of the dome and looks good. It reminded me of the palaces in India in Fatehpur Sikri and somewhere near Agra, where King Akbar held regular interfaith meetings between Christians, Jews, Hindus, Jains, Buddhist and Muslims at that time. Indeed, for the first time, the Hindu holy books were translated from Sanskrit to Farsi and then to English. His buildings have all the religious symbols on them, and one of these days, I am going to pull those pictures I have taken and post on the facebook.

I would encourage people to learn about other faiths, it will strengthen your own faith knowing that all religions were committed to bring peace to individuals and creating a social balance in the society.
